Follow these steps

If you haven't already done so, give your evaluator (doctor, psychologist) a copy of the Guidelines for Evaluators for your disability. Your evaluator should make sure that the documentation he/she provides meets our guidelines. In most cases, your evaluator will be a psychologist or doctor who administered a series of psychological, educational or medical tests with you, and provided you with a copy of a diagnostic report or a detailed letter.

We will notify you by email of our decision. If you are approved for test accommodations, the email will provide you with additional instructions for how to schedule your accommodated test. It is your responsibility to ensure that you provide us with a current, accurate email address.

If you are not satisfied with the test accommodations decision, you may appeal this decision by completing an Appeal Form and providing us with additional documentation to review.

Consider sending us supporting documentation

It would be helpful (but is not required) for you to provide additional supporting documentation, such as:

School records that show participation in special education services

Individualized Education Plans (IEPs)

Transcripts from middle school or high school

Other records that show a history of academic difficulties due to your disability
